Global Health (Kali Stanger)
This selective allows residents to build global medicine-related clinical skills while staying physically based at CCRMC to complete required FMCs. The curriculum includes: hands-on ultrasound teaching, chest (TB) clinic, HIV clinic, Hansen's disease clinic, nursing skill development (starting IV lines, hanging meds, etc), lab skill development (reading peripheral blood smears, stool/urine microscopy, gram stain, blood typing, etc), as well as completion of online GHEC modules. Additionally, students will have time dedicated each week to one-on-one mentorship with global medicine attendings. Some residents may share the elective month with a UCSF MS4.
Scheduling is flexible, and residents may work with the faculty coordinator to tailor the selective to their specific interests.
